Chapter 313 - 313. Grandma And Dave
Now Atmadja's residence is empty. There were only maids taking care of the magnificent mansion. Devan returned to his usual activities, and so did Leo. The two men were so busy with the respective companies that they rarely saw each other.
If usually Leo always bothered his cousin, not anymore. Apart from taking care of his company, he spends more time with Naila.

Australia
It was now afternoon, Grandma was still busy accompanying Dave playing in the garden, to be precise around Aaron's fish pond. They've been there since this morning. Looks very cool enjoying the air today. Maybe because since this morning, the air is neither hot nor cold. Even though the sky looked a little dark, it didn't rain.
The air is very cool, coupled with the thick maple trees around them. The smell of pollen coming from the flowers in the garden occasionally wafts when the wind blows.
Since arriving in Australia, the old woman never wanted to be away from her grandson. Even when sleeping, she is always near him. Doesn't want to go far. Everything that Claire used to do to her son was now being replaced by Grandma.
"Grandma, when will my mother come?" Dave asked turning to the old woman.
"Be patient, dear. Just wait, she will come soon, "replied Grandma closer to the boy. Right now they were sitting on the carpet right under the maple tree, accompanying Dave playing toy cars.
Several maids were seen standing by their side, ready to serve when the two masters needed something.
As for Claire? The woman went shopping for all her necessities, Dave's and Grandma's. She was only accompanied by the butler and a few bodyguards.
She had done it on her own and didn't take Dave, also grandma, because she didn't want anything like the past to happen again. She still remembers the time Dave and Grandma ran and chased each other when they visited the shopping center while still in Indonesia.
Not only that, but she also didn't want Grandma to feel tired. So doing it herself is the best option.
As for Aaron, the man worked. And probably still in his office now.
"Honey, don't play too far," Grandma said when she saw Dave was a little away from her.
"I'll take care of him, madam," said a maid and then walked over to Dave.
Grandma just nodded at the words, she then turned to the maid who was standing next to her. "I'm thirsty, please get me a cold drink. For Dave too," she ordered.
"Okay, madam."
"Don't forget to bring Dave's favorite snacks too," Grandma said again and managed to make the maid stop."
"Okay, Madame, then I will excuse myself," said the Maid and then left.
At the same time, her cell phone rang. She immediately grabbed the flat-shaped object, saw the name printed on the cellphone screen, smiled, and immediately answered.
"Hi, darling. Why did you call me?" Grandma asked first.
"Grandma, is Dave all right? Is he crying?" came a woman's voice from the other side. She is Claire.
"Don't worry, he's very happy. I'm still in the park with him, it seems Dave likes the gifts his father sent him," replied Grandma. Yes, a few days ago, Devan sent his son a toy car, it is a rare toy series and there are only a few in this world.
Hearing that, Claire took a deep breath, "Have you guys eaten?" she asked.
"Erm. I even asked the Maids to take our lunch to the park because Dave doesn't want to leave this place," Grandma answered. Her gaze never left her grandson who was seen fiddling with the remote in his hand.
"Did you call me just to ask how Dave is doing?" Grandma asked.
"Yes I did, Grandma, there's also something else. Do you want to do something? I'll buy it before I go home," Claire asked.
"Besides what I told you this morning before you left, nothing else, honey. That's all," replied Grandma.
"Well then, Grandma."
"Are you going home now?" Grandma asked her interlocutor.
"Perhaps soon, Grandma. I want to go grocery shopping first."
Grandma took a deep breath, "Do you have to do that too? Let the maids do it, don't tire yourself out, honey. Go home now. Leave the housework to the maids," replied Grandma.
"No Grandma. I want to do it, one day when I become Devan's wife, I want to learn to take care of everything with myself. I just want to get used to it from now on," said Claire.
Hearing that, Grandma smiled and was happy, "Well, it's up to you, honey," Grandma replied.
They talked for a few more minutes before the line was cut. Grandma sighed deeply again, "I'm not sure, Devan will let you do the menial work you mean, Claire. After all, Devan is very rich, he is even able to employ hundreds of maids just for you," Grandma muttered, she understood her grandson's nature. Although his demeanor looks cold and indifferent, the man cares about the people he cares about the most.
"Please madam," said the maid as she put down some of the food and drinks she had brought.
Grandma just nodded and stood up from her position, following Dave who was playing further and further away.
"Honey, take a break. Don't keep playing, aren't you tired?" Grandmother walked over to her grandson, bent down, and matched her position with the boy.
"Let's drink first, I've also asked some Maids to bring some of your favorite snacks," she added.
"Is that true?" Dave replied with a twinkle in his eye.
Hearing that, Grandma nodded.
"Okay, Grandma. I'm going to stop playing now," Dave said and turned around, running towards the maple tree where Grandma had been before.
"Hey, be careful. Don't run like that," shouted Grandma, getting up from her position and following her grandson.
"Grandma, your phone is ringing," Dave shouted.
Grandma didn't respond, just quickened her pace.
"Granny Seira called, Grandma," Dave shouted again, holding up the phone in his hand.
"Seira?" Grandma muttered, "Give it to me, honey," she added, holding out her hand.
Dave nodded and then handed the flat-shaped object in his hand to the old woman.
"What's wrong is she calling me?" Grandma muttered then answered the phone.
